		<description>I'm quite fond of David Baldacci's books. I highly recommend a recent one he did called "Wish you well." 
And you're right, Dirk Pitt (the hero in Clive Cusslers books) is just the sort of hero/real man that a nerdy guy like me can dream about being like, with it being a somewhat realistic goal.</description>

		<description>hey there's nothing wrong with being a nerd! :)

what i meant was they're action-ish in the same way mills and boon are romantic-ish, appealing to the "hero" ideal in men like romance novels appeal to the "falling in love" ideal in women. btw know this is shamelessly stereotyping so sorry. :)

anyway back on topic I never liked the Kay Scarpetta books much. Preferred PD James and Ruth Rendell. Have just started reading David Baldacci, he's pretty good.  

oh yeah and God's pretty good too.</description>

		<description>Um... I have no idea. All I know is that I've read them all, but I'm somewhat of a nerd, so that's not saying much.</description>

		<description>Clive Cussler is where the real writing's at (And, to a much higher extent, Douglas Adams and um.. God).</description>

		<description>As a kindred Kay Scarpetta et al fan; who enjoyed the earlier books to the point when Benton's beautiful number was supposedly up. The consequent exploration of grief and loss, cat and mouse thriller tatics were absorbing. Then every thing started book by book to go horribly wrong (except the food of course)...... that was a bloody funny post. Very fitting for this particular genre.</description>
